The Muffuletta, a quintessential New Orleans sandwich and Napoleon House signature, a hearty sandwich of cured meats and cheese, slathered with a tangy olive salad dressing piled onto a sesame-crusted Italian loaf. What sets the Napoleon House muffuletta apart is the meticulous preparation (everything made from scratch in house) and the additional step of warming, which intensifies the flavors for a uniquely delicious experience!
Uncle Joe Impastato, the visionary founder of Napoleon House, had a discerning palate that leaned away from potent alcoholic beverages. Acquainted with Pimm's Cup during his travels in England—a refreshing, low-alcohol libation perfect for summer—he introduced it to Napoleon House. As a trailblazer, Napoleon House proudly became the first establishment in America to offer Pimm's Cups, surpassing global sales records, second only to the historic London bar that birthed this iconic drink.
